Bear Archery Hair Rest & Plate Review

You may need a small amount of clearance between the rest and side plate. The down hen feather will naturally show some signs of wear over time.

I had an older Ben Person bow that presented with a similar problem. I found that leaving a small gap between the edge of the rest and the riser(1/8) inch, and placing a portion of a toothpick under plate seemed to help a little. It seemed to add a little more feather clearance.

These are a peel and stick rest and plate. For the rest you would take the brown piece off the bottom and stick it to the shelf. For the rest you would do the same thing with the white piece on the back.

Yes, That hair shelf was really tricky. the back peel of it is not the thin film and eventually after some wiggling i was able to get it to work.

It's been years, but from what I remember it was a cover over an adhesive and didn't require anything else. 

It's a peel and stick you have to take the shiny paper off to expose the glue you might need a razor blade to get it started

The weather rest is for shooting vanes, the bear hair rest and plate are for feathers only

The weather rest will allow you to shoot arrows with plastic vanes. People do this for many reasons, including arrows with plastic vanes are easier to find and may be cheaper. The hair rest is for shooting off the shelf. Plastic vanes do not fly well off the shelf because they will not collapse like feather fletching. Personally, I like feathers off the shelf. Either one will work just fine, the Weather will allow you to use both plastic and feathers.

5713 is a little thinner on the rug portion

Hair rest is just what is implied it rests on the arrow shelf on the bow (you just stick it on and the arrow rests on top. the plate is vertical and sticks on the inside of the arrow shelf. So under your arrow is the rest and on the side of your arrow is the rubber plate. Hope this helps.

It is 1/8" thick

It is just under an 1/8th"

It is self adhesive, so I think it would work to double the rest plate.
